Default MIA Blue .2 GT3 delivered!

Finally took delivery of my first 911 yesterday. Built to spec, no wart . Been lurking for a while as I had an allocation for an early 991.1 GT3, but decided to skip it when the car had the all stop production status. Ended up going a different direction and got a GT4, drove it for 3 years. While it was a great car, and thoroughly enjoyed it on track, based on what I've experience thus far the GT3 is a good step on from the '4 in every department. Looking forward to getting through run in and flexing this engine!

Congrats! How did you delete the wart? Aftermarket or somehow from the factory? Enjoy in good health

edit - I maybe misunderstood you are talking about the sportchrono wart, I thought sat radio wart on the roof

Congrats- like Miami Blue. Be patient during the first 1000 miles. The engine is cranky and tight until you get some miles on her.

Thanks for all the comments. Yeah, Miami blue is fantastic. The color shift is crazy from indoor, to shade to bright sunlight. I went PDK. After having a manual for a bit, I wanted to have a go with PDK. Not disappointed at all, but I do find myself pushing down on the floor with my left foot and moving the shifter like a manual.

Miami is so hot right now
if you order option P77, you get no warts on roof or the butt.
